Title: Method and apparatus for manufacturing expanded mesh sheet and battery using this expanded mesh sheet
Inventor: KOBAYASHI HIROYUKI
IPC: B21D31/04
Filed: 1999-03-11
Abstract: Fine slits are formed in the metal sheet B at the slit forming section 11 by plate cutters 15, excluding portions in the center and on both sides in a widthwise direction of the metal sheet B, after which the areas where the slits have been formed are drawn out at the expanding section 12 thereby opening the slits and obtaining a mesn sheet C which has solid portions in the central portion and on both sides. This mesh sheet C is flattened at the rolling section 14 to obtain an expanded mesh sheet D. An electrode sheet is prepared by applying an active material onto the portions of the expanded mesh sheet D where the mesh has been formed, and collectors for a battery are cut out from this electrode sheet such that lead connecting portions thereof are located at the solid portion of the mesh sheet where there is no openings, with which a positive and negative electrode plates for the battery are manufactured.

Title: Identification of molecular sequence signatures and methods involving the same
Inventor: SAFER PENINA
IPC: C12Q1/6827
Filed: 1997-09-18
Abstract: Novel means and methods for analyzing hybridization data derived from hybridization assays between a target nucleic acid and differently sequenced polynucleotide probes involve selecting probe sets that define reference sequences for sequence signatures and deriving useful data about the nature of the target nucleic acid molecule based on its hybridization to the probes. The methods are useful for determining whether the target contains a nucleic acid or polypeptide or sequence signature, whether the target encodes a member of a gene family, or whether the target is derived from one of any number of genes.

Title: Windrower platform side-to-side float balance adjustment
Inventor: MELLIN MICHAEL JAMES
IPC: A01D41/14
Filed: 1999-07-12
Abstract: A harvester platform is suspended from the implement main frame by a linkage including a pair of lower transversely spaced links each having rear and front ends respectively pivotally attached to the main frame and the platform. Associated with each lower suspension link is a hydraulic float cylinder coupled between the main frame and the associated link so as to exert a lifting force on the link. The amount of lifting force exerted by each float cylinder may be varied by adjusting the location of the anchor pin connecting the cylinder to the main frame through means of an adjustable bracket that carries the anchor pin. Side-to-side float balance of the platform is achieved through properly adjusting the anchor pin locations so that the float cylinder at the heavier end of the platform exerts a greater lifting force than the float cylinder at the lighter end of the platform.

Title: Laser marking of articles
Inventor: ZIENTEK PAUL
IPC: B23K26/18
Filed: 1998-02-19
Abstract: A method of marking or forming a transparent window in an article (6), such as a security document, is provided in which areas of opacifying layers of printed ink (8, 10) on opposite surfaces of a polymeric film or substrate (12) are irradiated by laser radiation (4) of a selected wavelength. The opacifying layers (8, 10) have greater absorption characteristics for the laser radiation than the film or substrate (12) which is substantially transparent to the selected wavelength of the laser radiation so that after ablation of the area of printed matter (8) on one surface, the radiation passes through the substrate (12) substantially unaffected to ablate the area of printed matter (10) on the opposite surface. In the resultant article, the markings or windows formed by the areas of printing removed from each surface of the substrate (12) are in register, and provide a deterrent against counterfeiting.

Title: Method for reducing bioavailability of lead by a lead-sequestering soil bacterium
Inventor: DAVIS-HOOVER WENDY J
IPC: C12N11/08
Filed: 1998-04-24
Abstract: Bioavailability of lead and other heavy metals in the environment may be reduced by addition of microorganisms which sequester lead from the environment in the presence of phosphate. The microorganisms are highly mobile and are, therefore, capable of scavenging a material for lead, which they then sequester. The method basically consists of reducing bioavailability of lead in the environment by addition of Pseudomonas aeroginosa strain CHL004 to said environment in the presence of phosphate which contains at least stoichiometric equivalent amounts of phosphate to lead.
